would it be possible to implement that on big spacecrafts?

Not much information. I assume they assume the vapor will return to earth? What is the hang time? This will be interesting. Glad they are using a nano scale trial.

How long does it take our liquid and ice deposits to return?

If it’s not a problem, fly high and deposit vapor, maybe it can bring some paint flecks down with it.

But it would be bad news if vapor got locked maybe higher in our charge fields.

Some theories say large amounts of vapor was held high in the past. Condensed and flooded the earth.
